308. I have told the Minister for Foreign Affairs what you said in your No. 165, October 3, 7 p.m., and he was most appreciative. The Minister said that he supposed the peace feelers were probably premature and that Europe would go on to destruction. Discussing the matter in a general way he expressed the fear that only Russia would be the victor in a long war. I must say I concur.
